Senior Truth

If I must tell the truth about getting old,
Then I shall put all my cards on the table
Even when I’m naked I still want to
Slip into something more comfortable

My Heart Pulsates In My Chest

My heart pulsates in my chest
When you come around
All bets are off
I lay my cards on the table
As you shuffle the deck
And I tremble to think
That you actually know me 
Yet still stay by my side

AbLe

Again another excuse
Another kind of fable
All the mental abuse
Relationship unstable

Lets for once call a truce
Lay all our cards on the table
Though what is the real use
If niether of us are then able

At times l feel a recluse
Whatever you call the labal
Ease the presure ,cut loose
If either of us are able

The Corner Bar

A man walks into a bar
and throws all of his cards on the table
his best, his worst,
all of his moments 
and dreams
spilling out
with him in a pool of blood,
tears,
vomit, 
piss,
and a laugh,
and a stumble,
and a moment of angelic grace,
when he touches the sky
with a bit of fiery wit
and a story
that proves he's more of a man,
than he who walks out with a limp
because he hates his own leg,
and walks into a bar
to throw all of his cards on the table.
